I'm guessing you mean Saturday 30th of August?

Why don't you hold it somewhere in the Dales? ;)

I was only being silly about Yorkshire/Derbyshire (Dales (!?) I'll have a thunk, but I dont really know the area your based in I'm 110 miles from you - clocked it last Sunday for the Rally to give you some idea.

Hi

Not getting email notification of posts so didn't know about this bit.....

'Sleepy' Lavendon [Buckinghamshire] has 2 pubs which serve very good food:

I'm happy to organise the booking.

The locals would never forget a convoy of Moggies visiting the village.

Would probably get on their website and possibly the local news! :lol:

Provisional booking made to eat at 30th August 6 -6.30pm @ The Green Man in Lavendon, Bucks.

Ideally we need to confirm numbers 2 weeks before 30th. But late-comers can be fed.... :)

Hope this is ok Dale. Can be easily altered if not.

Might not be on here for a few days as going in for an op' on my gearchanging hand today.

Back soon.

PS Maybe you should put this on the events part of this site?
